Editor: How to reset the video resolution?

Post by sad ham »

Launching the editor the first time, a popup opens asking to set the video resolution.
How can we reset it if we set it wrong? I've tried to re-launch the editor, but the popup does not open anymore.

Afaik you need to look for the editor.ini file.

For Win7 it can be found under <Username>\Documents\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - War In Europe\

You can edit it manually (you need to to know a supported resolution - see the sc3.ini in the same folder in case you want to use the same as the main game). Alternatively it might work to rename the file and re-run the editor so it let`s you choose again.

Good luck!

The editor.ini file says this right at the start:

"DO NOT manually edit these settings;
These values are set from within the editor"

In the Editor, hit 'F3', it brings up the change resolution box. Well, at least it does here [:)]
There is also a thing in the Edit dropdown.
